    $1.69 for a small, black coffee in a mug with unlimited, free refills! Great for when you're broke or having a serious study session.

    Sure, it may be a chain, but this place breeds the same cozy, diverse atmosphere like an indie coffee house tucked away in NYC. People of all ages come to chat, work or read. Hurry to get an outlet!

    They do not know how to make a matcha green tea latte and cut you short of your drink so it is all just froth. The valley West coffee store knows how to make it 100 percent better.

    I love caribou but they need to have a better mix of experienced and new staff working at the same time. Coffee is fantastic though.

    The almond milk chai is very good and the people there are very friendly and they use liquid chai mix there for people who like chai.

    Love the coffee, but I didn't enjoy it leaking all over me! The lids are defective. Java Joe's still tops them!

    The people are always so nice and peppy; also all the coffee comes with two chocolate covered coffee beans!

    The Internet does not work very well here. YMMV! I think there is just so many people on that it is unusable.
